My awkward experience with the RR and how I ended up here with my story idea. And how it mutated to fit the SH readers expectations
Hmm where should I start? Hmm lets start from the beginning.
One day several months ago I watched a hentai anime. (Of course being a man of culture I was mostly interested in its beautiful artwork and amazing story filled with great and vivid characters and world building and plot line).
What caught my attention was the absurd plot where the high schoolers in a modern day environment were fucking left and right in the school premises and even the process was set up officially by the school authorities.
"Hmm that is absolutely unrealistic and idiotic scenario." I thought then I put some efforts and brainstorming to figure out how and with what kind of additional settings this bullshit of a world-building may look believable.
"Hmm, forcing high school teenage girls to bed with their schoolmates. That is Evil... Evil ...Hmm. Demons are Evil. Yes so that world must be a demon infested world. But those girls are happy to be cum-dumpsters? The demons have Brainwashed those poor girls! Yes That sounds plausible!!" So that is how my idea of a story was born

Being a fan of Litrpg and fantasy novels and a RR reader one day I was bored to death here at work. So I got the crazy idea to write a story about that hentai world but you know -Not a hentai but a real LITRPG fantasy.
"But I haven''t written a single verse in my life plus I have to write in English?!"
"Who cares mate, you can do it" I cheered myself.
"Shouldn't be that difficult, the writing? Right?!"

So I hit the create" button at RR's account and was officially baptised as an Author by RR church.
That only lasted for 2 days... till the RR moderator de-baptised me from an Author to a regular Reader denying my "genius"story idea:
"You better get the fuck out of here. You are planning to write sexual stuff in our virgin-maiden community "R 05"(toddlers only) web site!" they said in a short message but devastating message
"But... But I was planning to comply with your censorship!" I stuttered in a reply which was coldly ignored by the RR head Inquisitor

"Hmm what should I do now? I still think my idea is brilliant and better than the others!!!" I was being delusional of course.
"Hmm may be I can publish this in another site"
Mostly on random I hit the create button on my ScribbleHub account and was re-born as an Author again by the much more liberal church of SH.

Of course I did some previous research for writing tips - mostly in RR forums, where the wise and successful authors gave their tips and recommendations. So learned that if I want my story to succeed it needs to fit the readers expectation on the hosting platform
"Hmm let see what the fellow readers like to read here in Scribblehub? I took a pen and paper surfed around at the most popular stories.

"Adult +3 Echi +4 ; Smut +12, fantasy+15 gender bender+ 6, girls love +4..... the statistics counter kept rising on those particular tags.

"Hah those are some interesting results? I have to write all those things to get some readers hooked??

"An Author is like a salesman, he have to provide what the readers like" I remembered another advice of a very successful writer in RR's forum
"Damn, I think can do it" I pumped my fists in the air
So my male character was gender-bent (unfortunate incident) to a high school girl.
Hmm so far so good but He was a straight man, a gender dysphoria will occur. Plus I got pity on her so she got her body dysphoria magically cured by a soul-magical mumbo-jumbo!
"Hmm the MC is a lanky, b-cupped 160 cm girl. The readers probably wont like her that way. BANG Swish twirl! A MAGICAL Puberty hit the MC and she grew C-cup boobs and 15 cm in height":)) :) :) :) The readers were mostly pleased of that outcome!

Then a fellow reader commented that MC's mother is very likeble and nice so they would like to see her more involved in the action.
"Bang-Swish-Twirl! The mother got the LITRPG System as well and joined the MC at slaughtering the demons.
Bang-Swish-Twirl A magic puberty for the mother as well.
"Why?"
'Why not!"
The fellow readers will probably enjoy it!
"Bang swish twirl" - Mom went from C to D cup breast's inflation and got 10 years younger body due to that puberty.
"Wow the Mother looks like a hot older sister of the MC now! Cool and hot! I like it! "

Hmm now about the "Echi" and Adult!
"How the hell I am gonna write a hot scene if I can barely write a simple fantasy stuff so far? And from the female's perspective on top of that???"
"I think I got it! I will just look for an inspiration ( plagiarise ) from another author's work and their female smut scenes!
"Wow. Wohaaa! I actually wrote a quite decent adult scene. It is hot, steaming hot! I am that good FU FU FU"

PS: Now seriously: I try to implement the echi and spicy stuff into the plot moderately and make them part of the worldbuilding and not the leading premises because my goal was and still is a litrpg fantasy!

Lol, yeah RR is not friendly on the sex at all. I mean, it's their call and all, but i think they do a bit too far on the opposite side to SH on it *wink*

Yeah i definitely think there's room for sexy stories, stories with sex in, and also filth lol. Each is a niche that deserves to be filled.
I mean, one of my all-time favourite stories is basically massive amounts of full-on sex, with some intriguing plot sandwitched in. Just because a story is lewd doesn't make it bad.

Of course, conversely there is a lot of trashy lewds about, but wading through to find gems is half the fun lol

Well, I'll at least say I'm glad you found comfortable ways to work your things out. :)

Also, for what's it's worth, I can relate to the Royalroad virgin-maiden thing. People complained about a story of mine because it had a few PG-13 innuendos and like, one or two gag panty shots. This is all that happens in about 50 something chapters, mind you. They were afraid my story was going to turn into full smut just from that, and that "I was walking the line" and they were afraid I was going to fall to the dark side of pervyness one day, or something.

They also complained about my violent fight scenes, too, even though the nature of my fantasy world makes it kinda hard for things to actually get explicit due to the damage aesthetics I went with (kinda Sword Art Online-esque, if you know what I mean). And also, it was supposed to be an action-focused story. Like, people have to get hurt at some point! Jeez.

One of these days, I'd love to write a full on porn book just to spite them lol. They'd lose their tiny little minds if I started to shove sex scenes in their wholesome little murderhobo-infested site.

On the other hand, some Scribblehub readers are way too obsessed with having your characters fulfill every single fetish they happened to dream up that night. But, hey, I'll be fair here, at least they have some tact about it and don't just straight up demand you do things.

Still, for every annoying reader, you're prone to encounter a helpful one as well, or if nothing else, at least the polite quiet ones that simply read your content and patiently await your return. Ignore the ones who don't seem helpful, and just give kind people some more credit, yeah?

"Jaterz, Jatráz", as they say.

Have fun writing, buddy.

Well that was a bad experience you had there! I hope you enjoy the free writing and creating spirit that SH represents. You just write what you feel is proper!

Just don't get into trending or you will get downrated by highly-competitive/try-hard authors and their army of clones.

I mean, at RR i get that, as their rating system kind of forces the competetive edge. But i don't really see the point of it here at SH.
Although anecdotally, every time I have been top 3 daily trending, I have gained several 1/5 scores lol. Luckily it's not like it makes much difference *smile*

Since I left RR, I managed to write another 28 books. So, I think I am all the better for it. I do miss the feedback, but then I remember that the feedback was the reason I left, and I shake my head, smiling.

Those authors must be Sith lords commanding army of clones you say. Yes, young Paduan, tempting the path of the dark side is! :devilish:

Being stubborn as a mule a week ago i tried again to publish the story in RR. And guess what?
It passed. Of course i failed to mention about any possible adult content in the synopsis there.
Unfortunately having over 60 k words already written here it was not possible to change major events like the gender bender. So i only did transfer with a standard censorship.
Now the funny part is i was slapped with 0.5 rating just a week after...
May be i am really bad at this writing I got depressed
I was about to quit when one of the 18 follower readers wrote a very positive 5stars review
I was hit by a mental orgasm. The joy, the happiness the thrill that i created something special had me stunned grinning like an idiot for a day

I believe there's a drawback to stories mixing smut and plot.

It's frustrating for a horny reader who comes for smut to get hit by plot.

It's frustrating for a readers who comes for plot to get hit by smut.

If you want to make a fulfilling story, you need a variety of conflict and resolution that isn't simply resolved by smut.

If you incorporate smut, it has to advance the plot, and this severely limit the type of plot...

I recommend cooking up the filthiest smut to exorcise yourself from horniness so you can write a non-smut story. If you feel like writing smut parts, make it bonus separate content.

I can respect a platform choice to accept or reject which kind of content they want to build their identity, as long as it's decided early on and doesn't cause migrations and kicks out userbase. If they keep changing policy and kick stories retroactively, it's a pain in the ass.

Bullshit. Sorry, but I find it funny one of my mate literally post Smut. And everyone there has collectively agreed we didn’t care. Also fun fact RR does allow for extremE violence
